Anyone done anything with the dead space under the trunk floor?

Noticed there's a decent gap between the hatch floor & the spare tire. Looks like a good option for some storage solution that's even more out of sight.
Pondering something maybe carpet lined & made from thin/light wood, or maybe multiple 3D printed pieces.

Would be a good spot to keep things like jumper cables, a couple straps & maybe a small toolkit/bottle jack.
Also want to have a hidden lockbox to secure things when not able to take into my destination, since the console & glovebox don't lock.

I used the space for subwoofers. Two shallow 12s and a space saver spare to make room.

Thought about a sub as well, I imagine a single would be more than plenty in such a small car.

Just so you know, you can put the load floor in two different positions so there's more or less space under there, here's a screenshot of how you do that from the manual. I put an old sheet under there so I'd have something to sit on if I had to change a tire-

Also good to know. The upper position seems to work well, and is a fair bit more storage space than the Mini had.

Can confirm with the shelf in it's high position is perfect for hiding a sub or two

I have a single kicker 10 and 400w, it's not over whelming but enough to shake the tree air freshener
